Cheezy, I was talking to matt, not you, but ok if you must. I will try to fully explain my position in this matter and your misconceptions that resulted, in an attempt to foster a better understanding, to hopefully bring an end to this line of conjecture and opinionation.
you said "The point was that you as an assistant decided to delete my post while leaving other posts to which I responded. Your decision to delete my post was IMO a decision made out of spite for me, and not out of doing the right thing for the board."
this is not only ridiculous, but an assumption on your part,
This deletion you refer to, was a response to a complaint,
I received from another member, understand there are many folks on that board who take a very active stance in the community, often when I return to the computer I find many complaints to investigate, and often I am not capable of dealing with them all, which is why this board has more than one mod, it has a lot of problematic posters.
which not only is almost always the case with your off topic posts(which you seem to not only have no problem with, but persist in doing even when asked not to, and continue even up until now to defend) but when added to that the fact that I started looking at the board at your offending post, deleted it and a few that followed before i was called away to work.
When I returned some hours later I saw that our moderator had picked up where I left off, so felt no need to back track any further. check the board when not so focused on you, and you may detect what I am saying to be the case.
You are not on trial here cheezy so please drop the paranoia.
On the other hand, Matt here and myself can easily attend to the fact , and I can easily name others who have been in receipt of material from you that would suggest that you would like it if I was on trial
I would prefer to keep such immaturity off this community as it is indeed proof positive of spitefull actions against me on your part. I have received nothing less than such accusatory threats of expulsion, disatisfaction, reverance, and much more from many members you have tried to sway opinions of myself with.
Again am I on trial?, should we move to discoveries?, If so I would be delighted.
Until then accept that I have kept my mouth shut about your behind the scenes attempts to discredit me and/or have me removed as assistant moderator. Up until now, at this time I would like to alert matt to your attempts to do exactly that. (oh but no, he already knows)
AND I AM NOT ASSUMING THIS CHEEZY!!, YOU KNOW IT, I HAVE PROOF. Until now dismissed as folly, shall we engage in conversation regarding that?
pffffttttt heres is a hatchet, and a shovel, use accordingly.
Also accept that any of my post deletions are a result of what I percieve to be tos/tou offences. As of late, due to posts by yourself and others I have had to question matt to gain clarity on what is considered offensive, as many posters would try to walk the line between fair and not fair posting.
Accept that we are not perfect and sometimes make mistakes, but also accept that posters like yourself who are cheerleading a member you favor, or making your latest sports predictions know full well the offensive posting nature you are engaging in.
You should not be surprised or take offense to the fact we see no post in a colored light, we try to treat them all the same.
I often delete posts from good standing members who are taking advantage of their "status" and offending the rules. In fact out of the hundreds if not thousands of posts I have removed I would be surprised if more than a couple dozen have been restored, Matt would better know my record, but I would have to assume that even after your last mod removal request to matt which was not put through, that perhaps your assumption there was also not correct, as i was not removed at that time.
To be honest I am getting a little tired of having to explain my actions as assistant mod, really the only person I need to explain anything to should be matt.
Then you say "The other poster made the assumption that "JimProfit" misses a lot of things, to which I responded he does not, IMO." Yes exactly, which is why I saw no reason to let the post stand as it had nothing to do with on topic, conversation
Other posts questioning the integrity of JimProfit remain on the board, but when I claim that JimProfit's posts are, in fact useful, and on topic in many cases, mine are deleted.
That is likely because you cannot see what has been deleted, cheezy, i can assure you, that poster, keeps us mods , somewhat busy I often times enjoy jim's candor and tongue in cheek content, but he receives the same level of attention that all posters receive.
these following comments need adressing, you say
"This suggestive deleting by you in particular is uncalled for, regardless what you think of me."
your post as already pointed out was off topic, end of story the rest is very much incorrect assumptions
then you continue with
"I have responded to attacks against me with PM's as suggested by Admin, but you and others continue to attack boardmembers publicly, and delete any response to defend oneself."
attacking?? in your opinion? perhaps someone is viewing all of this through their own glasses. I have not been reprimanded for attacking anyone, I try always to refrain from attacks as hard as it may or may not be, it is my personal focus.
However, easily misconstrued when trying to explain to an offending poster.
AS IN THIS PARTICULAR SITUATION
cHEEZY-this is about the last time I am going to entertain you with regard to these matters, it is clear who is trying to discredit who, one only has to drag it all out in the open.
I would prefer a different resolution for all concerned.
I will speak to all the other mods, regarding your complaints, to be fair. Hopefully this will dispell any so called "unfair" treatment from happening in the future.
All I ask in return for my effort is an agreement with you to refrain from any off topic posting, or anything else against the rules.
Does that about cover your queries?
Sounds fair to me, you?
(again this is just one of many reasons I support matts attempt to activate an OT labelling procedure)
SOONER THE BETTER MATT!!!
ALSO DO NOT FORGET WE HAVE ONLY 24 HOURS TO ACT ON A POST AFTER THAT ADMIN TAKES PRECIDENCE
